Enquire nowThe Scottish Borders region
The Borders offers a wide variety of events, attractions and activities. You can get the essential guide from www.visitscottishborders.com and a brochure on events from www.bordersevents.com.
There are plenty of castles and stately homes to visit in the region - more than any other part of Britain, it is said! Floors Castle (home of the Duke and Duchess of Roxburghe), Alnwick Castle (where Harry Potter was filmed!), Abbotsford (Home of Sir Walter Scott)....the list goes on! There are also various private gardens open to the public, including Kailzie Garden and Dawyck Botanical Garden in Peebles.
Lovers of the great outdoors will be in their element, with the Borders Abbeys Way, the John Buchan Way and Forestry Walking amongst the routes on offer. Maps are available from the Scottish Tourist Board. Walking Festivals are held each year in Melrose and Jedburgh. If walking is not your thing then you can explore the area on bike - choose from off road forest trails, local marked cycle trails on and off road and mountain biking.
There are lots of festivals every year too - all Borders towns have annual festivals connected to the Riding of Boundaries which took place when there was trouble at the borders between Scottish and English residents. There are spectacular parades on horseback. Walking festivals & Music festivals in the summer, classical or traditional folk.
Children can take part in their own nature trails and competitions, get creative at Pot-a-doodle-do arts centre, where they can also have a go at quad biking! If that doesn't take their fancy then there are adventure playgrounds at Bowhill and Floors Castle, as well Slotia Kids children's centre, a falconry centre, and Conundrum Farm visitor's centre.
The Jedburgh / Knowesouth area
Roads are quiet with very little traffic. Edinburgh is an easy one hour drive away, and Jedburgh, a delightful small town with shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as historic sights, is four miles distance.
This beautiful corner of Scotland is a delight to explore on quiet country roads. Abbeys, castles and stately homes and gardens abound and there is excellent walking, cycling, fishing and riding to be enjoyed locally as well as several championship golf courses nearby - and some less demanding ones. Water sports are available at Kielder and St Mary's Loch. Edinburgh's city attractions and the glorious Northumberland coast are all within easy reach, whilst shopping bargains can be found in the knitwear mills for which the area is famed. Jedburgh, with its shops, restaurants and pubs and magnificent abbey ruins, is just 4 miles, as is Denholm village.
Visit ruined abbeys in Melrose, Kelso and Jedburgh, try your hand at watersports ar Keilder Dam and St Mary's Loch, have a go at horseriding, with schools for all abilities, get active at one of the nearby leisure centres or grab a bargain at a mill shop!
